So I tried the version in Debian unstable...

The same thing happens with cdparanoia-3.10.2+debian.

But the patch above doesn't help. Now cdparanoia crashes with a segmentation
fault:

| 0x0ffd5730 in cdda_read_timed () from /usr/lib/libcdda_interface.so.0
| (gdb) bt
| #0 0x0ffd5730 in cdda_read_timed () from /usr/lib/libcdda_interface.so.0
| #1 0x0ffa7624 in i_read_c_block () from /usr/lib/libcdda_paranoia.so.0
| #2 0x0ffa9114 in paranoia_read_limited () from /usr/lib/libcdda_paranoia.so.0
| #3 0x10004da0 in ?? ()
| #4 0x0fd46704 in ?? () from /lib/libc.so.6
| #5 0x0fd468c0 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6
| #6 0x00000000 in ?? ()

due to the `buffer' parameter being NULL.

With kind regards,
